    does it pull to one side when trying to go strait?
    The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person who is doing it.

    Does the steering stem turn or is it stuck? If its not stuck, do you have a good front tire on it? Pics would help

    And a red 2000 silverado

    first off are the 2 back tires the same? if so is the pressure right?. if your left front wheel bearing is gone it would cause this. and u probably would not see the bearing damaged because there is a seal in front o fit. it will just lean some when you ride pulling it to the side.
    Looking for some smaller style tires like the r's have, just 2 back tires. pm please.

    A v tread front tire helps some leaning helps but bearings first a bent fork could cause the stray as well

    tire pressure in the rear must be exactly the same. if it's not it will pull to the side with the lower pressure. they has others mentioned, bent forks, bad bearings.

    check your rear hubs and see if one of them has spun the splines out.
